The touchpad is not working at all on my new Sony Vaio VPCF12S1E laptop.
I have tested this with live CD for 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) and a 10.10 beta release CD. I downloaded both CD's yesterday.
According to windows the touchpad has an ALPS touchpad.
This guy seems to have a similar problem with this laptop and fedora 13:

I'd be happy to give any additional information and do testing for you.
How do I upload apport-files?
Which terminal commands should I run to give you additional info?
